The Autobiography of Malcolm X (Parents Guide)
Positive Messages: 6/10
This is a book of a man who refused to let anybody tell him who or what he was.
Of course there is "The Nation Of Islam" but Malcolm leaves them at the end, so it's all right.
Positive Role Models: 10/10
The first half of the book can't be called highly positive, as he is a drug addict and a burglar, but he is not proud of the bad things he done and repents later in jail. The second half of the book could be called highly positive as he turns into a man with a vision, who will fight to the death to give his people Human and Civil Rights.Profanity: 8/10
Frequent use of "Nigger". A few uses of crap.
Sex: 9/10
Highly frequent mentions about Prostitution, Rape, Interracial couples etc. though nothing too explicit. Later on he lives in an prostitute brothel with multiple apartments where prostitutes, drug peddlers, and burglars live.
Drinking: 9/10
Very high as he lives in the ghettos, and later works several times in bars.
Smoking/Drugs: 10/10
He develops into an extreme drug addict, without any morals or barriers of where he's going to go. He becomes a drug peddler later on while smoking them himself. Everyone around him uses drugs to forget their poverty and sadness.
Violence/Gore: 5/10
He carries several guns and witnesses murders. His father is brutally murdered.
Frightening/Intense: 2/10
Not Frightening nor very much intense.
Mood: Sad
The whole world around him is full of sad, and heart-broken people.
THIS BOOK IS DEFINITELY RECOMMENDED AS IT'S A NR.1 BESTSELLER AND IS THE BEST AUTOBIOGRAPHY EVER WRITTEN. IT'S ONLY FOR ADULTS BECAUSE OF THE HIGH SEX AND DRUG CONTENT.
